"Your Highness Wayne, it's great that you're fine." He turned his face, looked at Menes who was walking forward, and reprimanded, "It's okay for Serena and Hemer to be ignorant, Menes, why don't you even You are not sensible enough to make His Royal Highness’s area such a dangerous place? If the research results can only be displayed in the laboratory and cannot be safely brought to the outside world, then the experiment itself is meaningless, you don’t understand this ?"
"Don't blame Menes, I asked to go." Wayne took the initiative to explain, and Menes gave Wayne an apologetic and grateful look.
Wayne smiled at her and continued:
"And, compared to the danger of the explosion, I may have gained something more important. Mr. Henry, I ask you a question, do you believe that Origin Stone has its own consciousness?"
Henry was taken aback by Wayne's sudden question, but he quickly shook his head and replied:
"I don't think Origin Stone has such a thing as 'consciousness'. Human consciousness activities obviously rely on the material support of the body, and Origin Stone obviously does not have this ability."
As he spoke, he suddenly paused, as if thinking of something, and added,
"However, the question of His Highness Wayne reminded me of something. As modern society has become more and more dependent on the origin stone industry, there have also been organizations on the earth that worship the origin stone. The most famous statement they preached That’s—Originstone animism.”
"Tell me specifically?" Wayne asked with interest.
Henry pursed his lips in embarrassment: "Actually, I don't know much. Worshiping Origin Stone is an incredible thing in Colombia where I was born and raised. All I know is that those people seem to claim that Origin Stone has its own consciousness, and will punish the people on the whole land. The continuous natural disasters are a sign of the God of Origin Stone's anger. The more people abuse the Origin Stone, the more natural disasters will punish them. Haha, according to this statement, Industrial countries like Columbia and Victoria may have been destroyed by natural disasters long ago."
"Oh, by the way, their sect seems to be mainly found in the area of Rem Billiton, and only that ignorant mining country can produce such a strange belief."
Chapter 84 Is there a reason why I have to go?
Rem Billiton used to be active among people who believed in Originium, and there was even a sect that believed in Originium animism. This is the first time Wei En has heard of such a thing.
As the cornerstone of Terra's modern industry, the origin stone industry is as important to Terra as oil and electricity are to the earth, only because origin stone mines exist widely and are renewable and inexhaustible The inexhaustible characteristics make Terra world at least not have the situation where wars broke out for oil like on earth.But it may be that Wayne is ignorant, he has never heard of a case of believing in oil as a god on earth?
Uh, no, it seems that there really are, and the Lighthouse Country is one of them.There is a famous joke that goes, "You have so much oil in your food that the United States wants to attack you".
But when Wayne thinks about it carefully, it seems that the origin stone belief is not an incredible thing, on the contrary, it still has a certain rationality.First of all, the origin stone is the raw material for modernization and the fuel for the development of the Terra world. It has an extraordinary status in itself. Shi, the fate waiting for him is probably "suspecting that your family has dangerous weapons".This is also the reason why even a country like Rem Billiton with zero military expenditure can still live on the land of Terra more moistly than the old powerful countries.
And because of the ubiquitous natural disasters that drive away mobile cities like shepherds driving sheep, the origin stones that are products of natural disasters naturally have a certain mystical symbolic meaning.With the natural disasters that are so powerful that even most countries and religions cannot solve them as a symbol, and the existence of things like origin stones that have advantages and disadvantages for Terra, the emergence of origin stone worship is not an incomprehensible thing up.And as the nearest mining country to Originium, Rem Billiton will become the birthplace and base camp of Originium belief, which is also a matter of course.
"In this way, there is one more reason to go to RIM Billiton."
Wayne said to himself.
There was an explosion in the laboratory, and the follow-up treatment is an urgent matter. At least in a short period of time, unless a new special laboratory is built, the part of the Spark Project related to the blood of the patriots must be temporarily suspended .In this way, after seeing old friends, there is no reason for Wayne to stay in Rhine Life.After a decent dinner with a few others in the staff canteen, Wayne boarded the plane back to Londinium from New Wales.
........
At the same time, on the aircraft flying from Londinium to Rim Billiton's capital Sigraine.
After reaching an agreement with Wayne and signing the employment contract, Yin Hui formally led his Shanxue ghost mercenary group to board the aircraft heading to Rem Billiton. The destination of the aircraft was the capital and largest city of Rem Billiton— — Sygraine.
Sigraine is a beautiful city. From the point of view of city construction and planning, there are no buildings related to "mines" in Sigrane. The tourism industry is developed here, and there is a vast intercity bustling area. Grasslands are used as pastures for raising tumor beasts.It is the largest tumour-milk producing area in Terra, and it is located in the great mountain range on the city route of Sigleni—the Great Dividing Range is not inferior to the alpine landforms of the Loloc Mountain Range at the junction of Colombia and Bolivar.The rain is abundant and the scenery is pleasant.
Most of the nobles in the land of Terra have their own vacation villas or noble manors in Sigraine and the Great Dividing Mountains on its route. As one of the main controllers of the Rem Billiton government, Victoria’s Aslan royal family There are more than [-] manors in Sigleni, ranging from majestic mountains to vast grasslands, from rural fields to tranquil lakesides, almost as long as you want beautiful scenery, there will always be a spacious villa carved with a lion's head next to it.
After being selected, Wayne opened a villa manor located in the Great Dividing Mountains, which is relatively close to the rabbit mining area (it is said to be close, but the mountain range is actually more than ten kilometers away from the mining area) to the "Mountain Snow Ghost" mercenary group and Silver Gray , as their temporary residence.Yin Hui is very satisfied with this station. Although there is no continuous snowstorm, the environment of the mountains still reminds him of his hometown Kjerag. In such an environment, it is more suitable for mountain snow ghosts to practice in order to cope with the hardships in the snowy mountains in the future. battle.
While on the plane, Nohis had already begun to think about his strategy in Rem Billiton. He reminded Yinhui:
"Enxiodis, don't let your guard down on Wayne. He is not a person to deceive. When I was in the store, just sitting across from him gave me the feeling that I was seen through by him and the woman next to him. .”
Yin Hui laughed off Nohis' warning. He knew the character of his partner and best friend. Thinking on the same level as yourself and others, such as now:
"Nohis, you are thinking too much. There is no need for His Highness Wayne to use small means against me. The premise of using small means is that small means can reduce expenses compared with normal means, but for Victoria, recruiting a mercenary group is really important. Is it difficult? Going deeper, is it really difficult to control a Kjerag for a Victoria that has resolved its internal struggle for power and once again united under one banner?"
"I claim to have a sharp eye for seeing people. His Highness Wayne is not like a pure imperialist. I see some brilliance of an idealist from him."
Nohis frowned:
"I cannot place Kjerag's future on what you call 'idealist splendor'."
"Then you can put it on me. Trust my judgment." Yin Hui said, "As for Ms. Kelsey, Nohis, who do you think she is? A simple Victorian palace?"
"Being by His Highness Wayne's side and acting as his agent seems to have a more equal and intimate relationship with him than the subordinate relationship between superiors and subordinates. Ms. Kelsey is not as simple as you think. Although she is neither The hereditary nobles are not the celebrities of society, but Terra has never lacked people who cannot be judged by common sense. You still have a lot to learn, Nohis."
Nosis stared at Yinhui's side face and fell into a brief silence.After a few minutes, he seemed to have calmed down, and asked again:
"So, you put the treasure on Victoria? Do you think they will kindly help Kjerag and help you fulfill your wish?"
"Of course that's impossible. There is no kindness without grievances and no grievances on the earth. Aid like charity is not the way I am pursuing to make Kjerag get out of backwardness and ignorance."
"Then what are you going to do?"
Facing Nohis' question, Yin Hui Li grinned, looked at the blue sky and clouds outside the window, and said:
"Well, so there is a reason why I have to go to RIM Billiton."
Chapter 85 Rem Billiton is a chessboard for His Majesty Wayne
Ram Billiton, Sygraney.
The aircraft bearing the Victorian emblem had just landed at the airport in Sigleni, and the surrounding tour guides and vendors gathered around like wolves smelling blood.For them, the people from Victoria are all big customers, they spend a lot of money, and they speak more politely, which is much better than the Ursus people who are quick to swear.If you can earn a fortune from Victoria's customers, you can basically realize the miracle of opening for half a year.
But before the tour guides and vendors holding various promotional slogans and introduction signs had time to get close to the boarding gate of the aircraft, they were startled by the crowd walking out of the opened boarding gate.I saw that what came out of the boarding gate was not a gentleman in a suit or a lady with fluttering skirts, but a group of fully armed soldiers wearing strange masks and armor, holding unpopular weapons such as axes and halberds.
Strange masks covered their entire heads, and the armor on their bodies made their racial characteristics less obvious. The merchants couldn't tell what race the soldiers who walked out of the cabin neatly and lined up on both sides of the stairs were.But they can at least confirm two points - first, they may not be able to get this money.Second, RIM Billiton may have something big happen.
Silver Ash walked out of the aircraft cabin, his thick black cloak fluttered under the cold wind of the airport, and he was holding the black cane with a specially processed tip that could be used as a magic staff in one hand. With his hands on his back and his body hidden in the cloak, his face is frosty, and he looks calm and majestic. If someone is not familiar with him, he may really regard him as a nobleman from an ancient Victorian family.
On the contrary, Nohis, who was following behind him, completely became the green leaves to set off the red flowers, not to mention the complete lack of aura, and even the sense of existence disappeared a lot.Fortunately, Nohis didn't care about such details. Instead, he was a little puzzled by Yinhui's approach and asked:
"Enxiodis, such a high-profile appearance does not seem to be in line with the rules of action set by His Royal Highness Wayne?"
"His Royal Highness Wayne's code of conduct is—do not want to be disturbed." Nohis responded flatly without turning his head as he walked down the steps to disembark, "But if you want not to be disturbed, just keep going. Concealment is out of the question.”
From Yinhui's point of view, the reason why Wayne gave him this task was to challenge him and test his attitude.
His Enxiodis Shivaash represents Kjerag, and Wayne represents Victoria, and this Rem Billiton is the chessboard, and there are Ursus, Letania, Ka Simir and Minos.His Royal Highness Wayne warned him that he didn't want to be disturbed by others, not to let him try to avoid all risks and accidents from the beginning, because risks will not disappear completely because of avoidance, the trick to not being disturbed is very simple, then It just has enough strength.
It's like Kjerag was always a snowy land isolated from the world before entering modern times. This is not because Kjerag is so good at hiding. Infested by natural disasters, the Kjerags don't even have a mobile city. Their cities are all fixed in one place and gradually spread.There is no such thing as hiding at all.And Kjerag has never been invaded by Victoria, Casimir, Ursus and other countries before this, because the snow land has mountains as its backing, blizzard as its weapon, and the united people as its confidence. The power makes all countries unwilling to spend their power on this land.
But now, the times have changed, and Yinhui is trying her best to tell all the Kjerag people that the current snow environment is no longer safe.During his study abroad in Victoria, he personally visited the Imperial Museum in Lundinium.When the other students in the same group were all lost in the exquisite artworks of the Gallic Empire that had become history in the exhibition hall and the architectural wreckage full of violent aesthetics of the former Lord of Londinium, the Drakes, only the silver ash stayed in the air. There is no one in the military museum, where there is a set of steam armor prototypes worn by the Victoria Royal Army Steam Armor Unit during the Battle of the Four Emperors a hundred years ago.With this set of battle armor, Victoria defeated the invincible Gaul Empire in the battle of the four emperors of Letania, Ursus, Gaul, and Victoria, and it will be very prosperous for a while. The Gaul Empire, which adopted its own language as Esperanto, has been turned into a ridiculous museum exhibit today.
And now, Victoria's power is more than twice as strong as it was a hundred years ago?Regardless of Victoria, Ursas has gone through the era of great conquest and has become a powerful industrial country and military empire. Letania overthrew the Witch King, and under the co-rule of the two kings, they began to catch up with the times. At this time, If Kjerag stands still and continues to pray that the mountains can shelter the snowy homeland, he can only chase the world with pain and blood and tears after the enemy bombards the country with artillery fire.
"This is a big game of chess. Wayne deigned to give me a chance to play the game on an equal footing. Then we must seize this opportunity to show him the power of Snowland, our determination, and the freedom from outside interference. It can also become a real country under my leadership."
Yin Hui calmly analyzed,
"An appearance that is imposing enough but not too ostentatious is like a pawn in Yan Guo chess, although it only takes one move to prevent..."
"But can it bring out our aura?" Nohis chuckled.Nodding his head, he recognized Yin Hui's idea.However, when he was about to leave, he suddenly asked:
"So you just kept looking at your phone on the aircraft, are you learning Chinese chess?"
Silver Gray shrugged: "It's not so much learning as it is exploring. For example, I found that serious chess doesn't seem to have those weird rules in the casual games I used to play."
"What rules." Nohis asked curiously.
"For example, [Yujia's personal conquest], destroying all the chess pieces in the area, [All army attack], moving all the chess pieces forward one square, [Separation plan], turning all the chess pieces on the opposite side into your own."
Nohis twitched his mouth and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. In the end, he still didn't ask Yinhui what kind of horse and cow game you were playing. He changed the subject abruptly: ".....Let's talk about it It’s about the Rabbit Mine.”
However, just as Nosis spoke, an electronic voice obviously processed by a voice changer interjected: "Are the two Mr. Enxiodis and Nosis?"
Nosis and Enxiodis gathered their spells at the same time, raised their heads vigilantly, and saw that at the exit of the airport, two Sarkaz people who were out of tune with the surrounding crowd had been waiting at the security checkpoint for a long time.
Yin Hui narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who are you?"
The red-haired Sarkaz snorted coldly in disdain, as if he was not very easy to get along with and was sulking.Beside her, wearing heavy power armor and carrying an alloy warhammer, the Sarkaz, who couldn't tell the difference between male and female, stood on tiptoe in a friendly way, beckoned to the two of them, and said:
"I am Muyan, she is Shirtel, and we are sent by His Royal Highness Wayne to pick up the plane!"
Chapter 86 It's nice to feel at home
January 1093, 1 in the Terran calendar, 21:10 am.Londinium, Royal Westminster International Airport, a luxurious aircraft is safely parked on the runway, waiting for its owner to board the plane.
Wei Na postponed a cabinet meeting at 09:30 am, the main content of the meeting was to discuss whether to issue pensions to "nobles who were killed by the brutal deep pool rebels" in the purge. It seems that Na doesn't need to think about it at all. The answer is very simple - send it, it must be sent, why not?
You must know that the nobles who died during the purge were not just those with titles. Most of the nobles who came to participate in the ceremony were used to bringing their families with them. After this purge, most of the nobles' families fell directly into a state of extinction. According to Victoria's aristocratic law, if a noble with a title dies out of the main line of the family, the title and property will belong to the emperor.In other words, Wei Na promised to pay the pension, and it was paid, but not fully paid.It's just a procedure, and the money is transferred from the left hand to the right hand, but it's such a procedure, take it out and publicize it, that not only reflects the kindness of Her Majesty the Queen, but also demonstrates Victoria's wealth, earning fame without losing money , why not post it?
This kind of thing has to be brought to the cabinet for a meeting. It is nothing more than to discuss whether the money will go into the national treasury or into the internal funds. All the nobles' money went to the treasury, and a consensus was reached before the meeting even opened.Wei Na also got a few hours of free time and came to the airport to see Wei En off.
"Seeing off is very strange. Let's not use this word indiscriminately in the future." Wayne rubbed Wei Na's head. Na was a bit neglected to take care of her hair, and Wei En actually pulled out a few hairs, which made Wei Na's originally happy expression suddenly stiff and pale, and she covered her head as if something was wrong.Seeing this, Wayne immediately comforted him:
"It's all right, it must be that I haven't had a good rest during this time, pay attention to rest, pay attention to rest."
After finishing speaking, Wayne turned around and looked at Kelsey, whispering in her ear:
"Kelsey, you know a lot, recommend two hair conditioners to Wei Na."
Kelsey gave Wayne a blank look, and said to her heart that my old lady had stayed up all night cultivating immortals for more than a hundred years, she had already reached the Nascent Soul Dacheng stage, she practiced the incarnation of mon3tr outside her birth, and she was invincible on Terra, how could she still lose her hair?
But forget it, who let me know everything?
"I heard that the Shivaash family in Kjerag has a secret recipe for fur maintenance. You can find a chance to ask Yinhui. Why are you looking at me? I don't lose my hair, I just know it by chance."
There are so many things you already know a little bit about.Wayne joked in his heart, not daring to say it out, because if it is not complete, the old lynx will fall into the riddle state of recalling his life.
It's hard to come up with such a talking and human-speaking Kelsey, so I can't change it back accidentally.
While Kelsey and Wayne were whispering, Teresia was not idle. After wandering around the cabin, Teresia approached Weina and said hello:
"Weina, you're here too. Are you done?"
"There is a meeting, I pushed it off." Wei Na replied, looking at Wei En's smiling figure, she showed a somewhat helpless smile: "I am my brother's only relative, and I always come to see him off when he goes away. Bar."
"Mr. Bruce agreed to go with me. I'm sorry. The vacation has just passed, and Mr. Bruce's injury has just recovered. He should rest in Londinium for a while longer." Teresia said sincerely.
Wei Na shook her head: "No, I don't need an apology. I also know that my brother is a person who can't be idle. If you look at the whole of Terra, there is a royal family in that country who likes to run around the world like him and cause trouble everywhere. What? Most people with high positions like to huddle in their fortresses and play their own king game in front of the mirror. The rich and powerful think there is nothing new under the sun, and there is nothing new and interesting in everything. Poverty Poor people are always obsessed with food and clothing, depressed about food and clothing, have no time to think about so-called poetry and distant places, and even hate the earth. Unlike my brother, he is more interested in this rotten world than many people .So, even if Sister Teresia didn't accompany him to Rim Billiton, he would take this journey sooner or later. Because there are things he is interested in."
Wei Na's eyes shone with a transparent light. For the first time in her life, she felt that she had found the motivation to drive her brother to act.There are many interpretations of the word goal. At a small scale, it is for selfish desires, harming others and not benefiting oneself. At a broad scale, it is a mission.
Teresia nodded approvingly: "But it's also because he behaves according to his interests that we can stand here and talk to each other, isn't it?"
Wei Na withdrew her gaze and smiled: "That's true. But I think, even if my brother doesn't find you, a capable and powerful good person like Sister Teresia can have a happy future, right?"
Wei Na's pure words made Teresia startled. She looked into Wei Na's eyes and showed a bitter smile.
"Hmm...maybe."
Wei Na grew up too fast.So much so that before she knew it, Teresia subconsciously ignored Wei Na, but she was still a young girl who had just grown up.Perhaps it was because Wayne's maturity covered up Weina's immaturity, and built a protective net for her, preventing her from personally experiencing what a "human-eating land" is.Her ability is enough, but her character still needs to be honed.
In this world, it is not that capable, powerful, and good people can have a happy future.Compared to the insidious and cunning mastermind behind the scenes, these three qualities are like light in the dark night, attracting countless wolves, tigers and leopards who are watching secretly.
"But someone has to lighten the darkness a little before dawn."
Wayne patted Teresia on the shoulder and encouraged her.
Teresia was a little startled: "Mr. Bruce, do you know what I'm thinking?"
"Spiritual communication is always two-way. When you are squeezing me, you are also being squeezed by me." Wayne said half a sentence, and left a half sentence: It's just that you squeeze my hair with tweezers, and I squeeze you That's when the backhoe digs your foundation.If he hadn't suddenly noticed an inexplicable depression in Teresia's mood just now (the 'hand' that touched the lion suddenly became cold), Wayne would not have casually teased Teresia.
"Okay, it's time to get on the aircraft. It takes at least ten hours to fly from Victoria to Ram Billiton. If you don't leave, it will be midnight when you arrive at Sigraine."
Wayne urged, turned his head, and waved to Wei Na:
"Bye-Bye!"
"Call me when you get to Rem Billiton. If it's cold, remember to add more clothes. Your injury is just right. Don't force yourself. Use less Originium skills, eat more food, don't be picky..."
"I know, I know!" Wayne nodded continuously, dumbfounded.
It feels like home, which is really good.
Chapter 87 Reasons for Silter's Dissatisfaction
"This is the manor arranged by His Highness Wayne for you. It is about [-] to [-] kilometers away from the rabbit mining area. However, there are railways and roads connecting the two, and the longest time spent going back and forth will not exceed One to two hours."
After leading Yinhui and Shan Xuegui's mercenary group to the villa built on the mountainside, Mu Yan introduced to Yinhui and others.
"You two can go down the mountain to find us after you settle down. We will take you to the excavation site of the Rabbit Mine. We live in a tourist resort down the mountain."
"Which one?" Nohis asked.
Shirtel raised his head and said grandly: "The venue is reserved!"
Noxis' eyelids twitched, and Shirtel seemed to be at odds with him, and she always looked angry when communicating with him. However, even if Shirtel had a normal temper, she was destined to have a different personality. Will make Nohis feel comfortable.Nohis is a guy who does not hesitate to use himself as a tool man in order to achieve his goal.And Shirtel attaches great importance to the people she approves. Sometimes, even if she violates the order, she will give priority to solving the troubles of her friends.
Nohis pushed his glasses, nodded and said, "Understood. It's to prevent spies mixed in with tourists from monitoring our actions, right?"
Shirtel didn't answer, just let out a cold "hum", then turned around, tugged at Muyan's arm, trying to pull her away too.
Mu Yan showed a sorry expression to the two of them, but it was a pity that they were covered by the helmet, and the silver and gray could not see anything: "Then you two, we will leave first. If you have any questions, you can contact us through the communicator in the manor. Just call the number of the resort under the mountain directly, the leaflet beside the bed is hurt. Farewell."
After finishing speaking, she turned her head, pulled her thigh-thick gauntlet out of Shirtel's hand, and asked puzzledly as she walked:
